Is mw and mW the same in watts . is it the same or is mW stronger voltage then mw?
Djchip
The units mw and mW are the same. They mean milliwatts. The terms Mw and MW, however, means megawats, which is a billion (1x109) times greater than a mw or a mW.
Another Answer
The correct symbol for a watt is an upper-case 'W'. So the correct symbol for a milliwatt is 'mW' (not 'mw'), and the correct symbol for a megawatt is 'MW' (not 'Mw').

What meaning 1.3MW gas power plant?
I guess that "MW" means mega-watts so therfore 1.3 MW is the amount of energy produced by the power plant.
How do you find the current rating of a zener diode if the power rating is 500mw and a voltage rating of 10v?
A zener diode with a rating of 500 mW will pass 50 mA at 10 V. (Power = voltage times current)Note: The question appears mis stated, in that it states a rating of 500 MW, not 500 mW. To my knowledge, there is no zener with a rating of 500 MW.
How many watts in a mega watt of electricity?
"mega-" = one million, so 1 megawatt = 1 000 000 watts. So 10 mW = 10 000 000 W.
What does mva stand for in the turbo generator field?
There are two concerns here regarding loading on transformers of this size. First is the difference between MVA and MW. MW is just real power -- watts. MVA is total power which includes real power (MW) and reactive power (MVAR).--- http://en.allexperts.com/q/Electric-Power-Utilities-2405/operation-limit-oof-power.htm
How do you change megawatts to kilovolts or What is the relation to MW produced to KV transmitted?
There is no direct relationship. It is a design, an engineering, decision, what voltage to use. A high voltage means less amperes are required; and alectrical losses are proportional to the square of the current (amperes).
How many watts are in 5 volts?
It's important to use the correct symbols for units of measurement. There is no such symbol as 'mw' -so you either mean 'mW' (milliwatts) or 'MW' (megawatts), which are significantly different! The watt is the SI unit for power. Voltage (potential difference) is measured in volts. Power and voltage are two completely different quantities, so it doesn't make sense to ask 'How much voltage is 5 mW (or MW)?'
What is a stronger laser pointer a 300 mW or a 100 mW?
300 milliwatts is brighter and stronger
How many watts to the power of 10 are in one megawatt?
1 MW is 106 watts.
How do you convert 20 MW to KW?
One MegaWatt is 1,000,000 Watts and one KiloWatt is 1,000 Watts. To convert MW to KW just multiply by 1,000. Answer is 20,000 KW
How far is 1 MW?
1 MW is not a distance it is a measure of power.. 1 Megawatt=1million watts MW can also stand for molecular wight which also is not a distance
If a power station only has 1 generator what would the current flowing out through the wires be if its output was 200mw and 25000volts?
You mean MW (megawatts) not mw (milliwatts). If it is generating 200 MW, that is 200,000,000 watts, at 25,000 volts, the current is given by watts/volts = 8000 amps.
What does MW mean in energy?
That's a unit of power, not of energy. * A watt (W) is one joule/second. * A megawatt (MW) is a million watts.
What is 8 000 000 watts in a simpler form?
You can write it as 8 MW.
What does mws stand for?
mw stands for milliwatts. MW stands for megawatts. 1 megawatt = 1 million watts = 1 billion milliwatts. So it's best to use the right symbols.CommentThe correct symbol for milliwatts is mW, not mw.
How many watts in one MW?
1000MW is equal to 1GW
How many mw equals a decibel?
How many mW equals a decibel?" The power reference 0 dB is equivalent to 0.001 watts or 1 mW, when we use dBm. That is power matching. Zin = Zout. http://engr.nmsu.edu/~etti/fall96/communications/db/db.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBm In electronics, especially audio and sound recording, a high impedance bridging, voltage bridging, or simply bridging connection is one which maximizes transfer of a voltage signal to the load. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_bridging
How do you get kilowatts if given voltage and ampheres?
Watts is the product of voltage times amperage. To change watts to kilowatts move the decimal place three places to the left. e.g. 115 volts times 15 amps = 1725. watts. Move the decimal place three places to the left gives you 1.725 Kilowatts. From a smaller value, one step, to a larger value, three to the left. From a larger value, one step, to a smaller value three to the right. e.g. 1.725 kW to watts, 1725.. Small to larger values - decimal left ; Watts 1725. to kW 1.725 3 places to MW 0.001725 6 places to GW 0.000001725 9 places. Larger to smaller values - decimal right ; GW 0.000001725 9 places to MW 0.001725 6 places to kW 1.725 to Watts 1725..
